Chapter 205: War, Tidal Domain

As they crossed the stormy sea on the outskirts, the sea suddenly calmed down, and the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, replaced by brilliant sunlight.
This scene left Gassani in a daze as if the violent storm and turbulent waves they had just encountered were merely illusions.
His eyes were filled with astonishment.
Looking back, he saw a substantial storm wall standing between the sea and the sky, with raging storms outside and calm waters inside, as if someone had artificially enclosed the entire stormy sea.
If he hadn’t witnessed it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that such a wonder existed in this world.
Soon, Gassani’s astonishment turned into excitement, and he shouted loudly, “Split into three fleets and search for the target islands separately.”
“If you spot any enemy ships, sink them on the spot! Don’t let a single ship escape!”
The orders were conveyed to the other ships by the flag bearers. The entire fleet split into three, sailing in different directions.
Little did they know that several pairs of eyes were watching their every move from the sky.
Back in the territory, Ji Chen suddenly opened his eyes and a glint of sharpness flashed in his eyes.
“Lord, the enemy has arrived?” asked Alice softly.
“The Sky Guardians have detected their fleet splitting into three and searching for the New Moon Islands.”
Ji Chen gazed at the sand table before him, where the entire stormy sea and the location of the New Moon Islands were displayed. Three flags, representing the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce fleet, were strategically placed at three different spots in the sea.
“The enemy is in the light, and we are in the dark. Because of their mistaken judgment of our strength, they have voluntarily dispersed their forces. This way, we can take them down one by one.”
“Alice, Benbo, each of you take a military unit and deal with two of their fleets,” Ji Chen ordered.
Alice and Benbo nodded and set off with their respective military units.
Ji Chen then inserted two flags representing Alice and Benbo into the sand table.
Now, with two enemy fleets dealt with, only one remained.
Next, he placed the flag representing himself in front of the flag representing the last enemy fleet.
Satisfied with the arrangement, he nodded.
“Lord, are we not going to pause the territory’s work and evacuate the people?” Wilus asked, with a hint of worry on his face.
“Just these enemies are not enough to make the Crown of the Ocean go to such lengths,” Ji Chen said, waving his hand dismissively.
“All affairs will proceed as usual.”
“I understand,” Wilus said, bowing respectfully.
In the eastern waters of the New Moon Islands.
One of the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce fleets was sailing, and two lookouts on board were scanning the surroundings, searching for the target islands.
Suddenly, one of the lookouts stopped moving the telescope in his hand and stared straight ahead at the distant sea.
His companion, seeing his reaction, couldn’t help but feel puzzled. “Have you spotted the islands?”
“There are people.”
Hearing this, his companion also looked through the telescope, and in the next moment, his face showed a bewildered expression.
Because, on the distant sea surface, there stood a figure!
No, it wasn’t a person. Instead of having a human lower body, it possessed a fishtail!
Stunned for a moment, the companion shouted at the top of his lungs, “E-enemy!”
Boom!
Above the sea, massive bubbles surged, and water splashes shot into the sky. Eight enormous tentacles burst out of the water, entwining and violently pulling on the warships.
Boom!
Dozens of tentacles shot out successively, swiftly entangling several other warships.
Screech-
The tentacles, imbued with immense strength, coiled around the wooden hulls, emitting a piercing frictional sound. Masts broke, cannons shifted, and ships sustained damage.
Under the violent shaking, countless sailors and guards were thrown into the sea, engulfed by the surging waves.
The people on the remaining ships watched in horror as they clearly saw that the owners of these tentacles were giant octopuses!
My goodness, how could such enormous octopuses exist in this world!?
Watching their ally’s ship being violently shaken, the crew on the other non-entangled ships quickly sailed away, fortunate that they weren’t targeted.
Just as they thought they could escape, water splashes sounded on both sides of their ships. Hideous Naga Berserkers and Dragon Blood Murlocs clung to the ship’s sides and then leaped onto the decks, launching attacks without hesitation.
Seeing the enemies invading their decks, they drew their weapons and prepared to fight back.
However, the disparity in strength soon became evident.
These were only third-tier merchant escorts and armed sailors, and they were no match for the fully fourth-tier Naga Berserkers and Dragon Blood Murlocs.
Their armor was like paper, instantly cut open and penetrated by the enemy’s bone blades and tridents, while their own swords and weapons could only leave white marks, unable to break through the enemy’s defenses.
Faced with this situation, the guards and sailors of the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce felt despair.
At this moment, they finally realized just how powerful the enemy truly was.
Surrounded by the ocean on all sides with nowhere to retreat and unable to defeat their opponents, they were quickly defeated.
Finally, one sailor could no longer suppress the fear in his heart, and he dropped his weapon and armor, kneeling down in surrender.
As if acknowledging his surrender, the merciless inhuman warriors paid no attention to him and proceeded to attack their other companions..
